===All Mixed Up===
'''All Mixed Up''' (known as '''Easy''' in ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'', '''Skyscraper''' in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', and '''Monster Megamix''' in ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]'') is the first Variety Tower the player encounters. In this tower, the player has to play a series of microgames, increasing in speed and difficulty, like in the main game. While regular microgames appear, boss microgames do not, so it is impossible to earn lives. ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'' is an exception; in this version, a boss microgame appears every 100 games. As with the other towers in ''Gold'', the color changes depending on the microgame that is coming up: yellow for Mash, blue for Twist, and red for Touch. In the Ultra mode where the guide for the inputs for each microgame is removed, the colors are always black and gray with the outlines being white.

'''Super Hard''' (known as '''Hard''' in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'' and ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!]]'', '''Tower''' in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'', and '''Gnarly Mix''' in ''WarioWare: Touched!'') is one of the Variety Towers the player plays. Depending on the game, it can be the second, third, or final tower faced. In this tower, the microgames do not increase in difficulty. However, the game starts at a [[Speed Up!|very fast speed]], giving the player very little time to react to and complete the microgames. Prior to ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]'', the [[microgame]]s' music did not rise in pitch while they were sped up.

Playing as [[18-Volt]] in [[Gamer]] from ''[[Game & Wario]]'' allows access to a similar BALLOON FIGHTER mode known as '''Ultra Speed'''. Much like other incarnations of Super Hard, Ultra Speed has the player start at a very fast speed, while the microgames remain at the first difficulty level.

'''Thrill Ride''' (known as '''Thrilling''' in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'' and ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!'', '''Mansion''' in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'', '''Hardcore Mix''' in ''WarioWare: Touched!'', and '''Sudden Death''' in ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'') is one of the Variety Towers the player faces. Depending on the game, it can be the second, third, or final tower unlocked. In this tower, the game does not increase in speed. However, the microgames are all on their third difficulty level (second difficulty level in ''WarioWare: Touched!'') and the player only has one life, making any mistake an instant [[Game Over]]. In ''WarioWare Gold'', the microgames are also played at a slightly increased speed.
